It's Sunday somewhere already so why wait?

Let us know what you set up lately, what kind of problems you currently think about or are running into, what new device you added to your homelab or what interesting service or article you found.

I'll post my ongoing things later/tomorrow but I didn't want to forget the post again.

I had a bit of a hiccup with my Unraid server. It wouldn’t turn on, and I got so fed up that I decided to get rid of it. But now, I’m back on the hunt for a new home server OS, and I’m hoping to find one that’s easy to use and has a GUI. If you were in my shoes in 2025, which one would you pick?

I'm still a noob but I have been shocked at how easy Cosmos Cloud has been to set up compared to my old docker/portainer/nginx architecture. Things just work with minimal to no troubleshooting

Thanks for the recommendation. It’s looking pretty interesting. I’m surprised I haven’t heard about it until now. How’s your experience overall? What other OS’s have you tried? I’ve tried Proxmox, then TrueNAS, but I settled on Unraid. (The Unraid server died on me. When I turned it on, I couldn’t access the web UI. Sometimes, when I press the power button, it doesn’t turn on. )

Now that I bought different hardware for the cosmos server and my Pi is free I should check out proxmox and unraid though just to compare
